Accessibility audit vs. accessibility testing
"There are currently three different options available to you when
testing a website for accessibility:
* Accessibility audit - An accessibility expert reviews your site,
highlighting any accessibility issue
* Accessibility testing - Real disabled users complete common tasks
on your website whilst a moderator notes all problems they experience
* Automated accessibility testing - An automated program evaluates
your website against accessibility guidelines"
Webcredible looks at the advantages and disadvantages of each method.
